The Emperor actually admitted it on the spot.
This surprised the Sacred Wizard and the Duke Gugel, as the Emperor admitting to attacking the princedoms was a very appalling act.
It was enough to trigger a war.
Ivita looked at Emperor Aoyue III and nodded. "Is that so? So be it, let's go."
Ivita and the Hearthstone Witch then transformed into a Dragon Hawk and a vulture, swiftly leaving the place.
The six Sacred Wizards watched Ivita, contemplating his magical power which might even surpass their peak.
"We didn't expect such a powerful wizard to appear in this world. It seems we are old now."
"I don't know how the Emperor will respond, but what does it have to do with us? We'll just watch to see who will win in the end."

After leaving the territory of the Holy Empire, Ivita and the Hearthstone Witch settled in a remote village in Alsace. Seeing that Ivita did not utter a word, the Hearthstone Witch thought he was very angry.
